Question Clutch Bleeder Valve "Clip"??

Ok some one help me out here please.

This weekend, I want to flush out/bleed my Clutch/Brakes (Having Clutch issues want to do the cheap/simple fix first)

I found a how to on here, and I found the directions in both my Haynes Manual and my GM Service manual.
Problem is, the pictures are limited in this aspect.

The Haynes manual says "Push the clip on the bleeder valve, moving the hydraulic line into the bleed position,"

The GM Service manual says "Push the clip in order to move the clutch line into the bleed position."

I cannot find a picture of this "clip" to press.
Does anyone know where, or what this "clip looks like? A picture would be VERY helpful.
Thanks,

There is a bleeder fitting on the line on top of the trans, use that. If you loosen that clip and break the seal on the hardline coming from the trans, you will make your life miserable. Just loosen the bleeder like you would a brake caliper bleeder and do it from there, same place. It's the little aluminum block on top of the transmission that the black plastic line goes into. On the bottom of that block is a clip, but that is what holds them together, not for bleeding.
